Miodes - Wildlife in the City Lyrics

Goldfish and terrapins swim in the canal
And parakeets have been seen in the trees
Turned out by owners who didn't want them anymore
That's why they're living free

It's a hot summer night
And there have been many
And it's a wild life in the city
The water is clear
And the weather is warm
And it's a new life for you, Julie

Lonely hearts, divorcees, students and refugees
Parked on the parched grass outside The Palm tree
The places where they came
Couldn't hold them any longer
They had to find another way to be

Goldfish and terrapins are fully-grown
Living a wild life in the city
All of the wild things have fled and flown
And it's a new life for you, Julie

And Phil whizzes up
In his mobility machine
And blasts his stereo
To the crowded scene

And there's nothing stopping him or you
From doing what you want to do
So just do
What you want to do

It's a new life for you, Julie...
It's a new life for you, Julie...
It's a new life for you, Julie...
